As reported by “NBN” with reference to information published in the official Telegram profile of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, in the area of the temporarily occupied Crimean Peninsula, 2, not 1, Russian Mi-8 helicopters unsuccessfully “landed” on the water.
According to the daily updated data of domestic military intelligence, on December 31 last year, special forces of the “Group-13” unit, using Magura V5 sea drones (previously equipped with surface-to-air missiles), “demilitarized” 2 Russian Mi-8 helicopters.
In addition, Putin's army lost not only helicopters, but also trained specialists, since the crews of the said enemy aircraft did not survive.
However, the GUR added:
Another Russian helicopter was hit by fire and managed to land damaged.
